AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes

AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes
I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

Unusual View of a Maze


Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ On entering the Enchanted Maze Garden at Arthurs Seat, Mornington Peninsula, there is a view overlooking the hedges of the first maze.
It is a strange perspective.
The hedges look like furrows in a field.
Golden foliage arches above the hedges in the background.
And, in the centre, rises an unusual sculpture of a long-necked figure looking as if he seeks a way out.

Feathered gold foliage
A defined maze of hedges
Rising rugged face

How wonderfully quirky. I've been toying with the idea of a maze in an unused pasture. Now I'm sure I want one.

Interesting view of the hedges and funny how the sculpture rises above them!
